The BACK wins..... this time

Couple of months ago, I made plans to attend the California Superbike School , this weekend in Vegas.   Was my 2016 Christmas present from Lucy .   Decided to take it to the next level.  Lucy joining me for an awesome weekend.  Terrace Suite at the Cosmopolitan .   First Class seats ...      Then, late in the game,  we decided to have her sis join us out there, so the two of them could kick it up while I was on the track ... but.......

Ten days ago , my back acted up on me.  For several days , it owned me.   Been to the Chiropractor several times but every-time I start to get 'healthy', I do something stupid and re-injure it. I was determined to pull this off.    Well, yesterday , I strained it yet again..... 

I knew I was pushing my luck the last week , but really wanted to make this happen.  Now, just able to get out of bed w/o sharp pains  I know I'm setting myself up for failure this weekend if I do this.  A motorcycle ride last Monday while my back was hurting, is was put me here in the first place.  I hit a pot hole and jar'd my spine, putting me through several days of hell.   I can only imagine what two days on a crotch rocket will do to me....

So , I make the call to the school today.  Problem is, they have a no refund policy this late in the game.   Hopefully , I can get a 'credit' to attend later this year.  Otherwise... that was an expensive 'dream'  ....  grrrr
